    We have been patients of this orthodontic practice for the past 5+ years with 2 children in treatment and 2 more future patients. The transformation under Dr. Patel’s care has been so much better than it was before he started this new practice. Before he took over, our experience was extremely inconsistent and often frustrating. There was a lack of communication amongst the office staff and the previous orthodontist and the patients Since Dr. Patel stepped in, it has been the complete opposite.

    Dr. Patel is transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in the well-being of his patients. He takes the time to explain every step of the process, answers questions thoroughly, and makes both parents and kids feel comfortable and informed. It’s clear he cares deeply about creating a positive experience and delivering excellent results.

    Although he had a lot of “undoing” to do when he took over the practice, he has handled it with professionalism, integrity, and a clear commitment to improvement. We are extremely happy with the care our children are receiving now and highly recommend Dr. Patel and his team!!

    Dr. Patel is very attentive and caring. If you have a issue he immediately puts you at ease and assists with concerns. His team is absolutely great and caring as well, they are always so pleasant. My previous scans had a missing far back tooth when I have a tooth there (previous scan from previous owner) Dr. Patel agreed with me that tracking would be fine but that missing tooth would not track with the rest and scanned me for new trays when previous Owner/Dr. Wouldn't and said it was fine to wear with a missing tooth. (I dont like to talk about previous owners however due to the circumstances and how it played a roll in my ortho process i am) I was so happy that Dr. Patel took my concerns seriously, agreed with me and promptly got me new trays. Fast, efficient, and accommodating all before christmas. Highly recommend them!

    I had a great experience bringing my son to Dr. Patels dental/orthodontic office! The entire team was so welcoming and patient, and they took the time to answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed. Their bedside manner is truly outstanding — kind, professional, and reassuring from start to finish. The service was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable throughout my visit. Highly recommend!
